Newburgh OPEN Studios

2015 - 2011

"Each year I am excited to photograph the artists that have elected to be part of Newburgh OPEN Studios. Artists of all caliber participate and allow us a peek into their lives and themselves for the purpose of building community.I feel a responsibility to each individual artist and to the final group photo with everyone that signed up, to capture a meaningful portrait that might provide an insight, a glimpse, of these valuable people that are the resource that is helping to bring quality change. My wish with the photography is to strengthen our friendships and to be able to share the photos with those outside of our city, to promote good relations and plant the seed of opportunity for those looking for a community."
